Etoll Saga Continues

#5096

Post by Phillip Coetser »

The e-toll system has been crippled by Gauteng motorists who simply refuse to settle mounting bills, and I quote, https://citizen.co.za/news/south-africa ... -scrapped/

The undercollection of revenue from e-tolls was not surprising but reinforced Gauteng government’s view the system had always been unsustainable and Sanral’s latest integrated annual report lent impetus to the need for the system to be cancelled.
That was according to Gauteng Premier David Makhura’s spokesperson, Vuyo Mhaga, who said yesterday although they were opposed to the tolling of Gauteng highways, they would like to give consultation to find a lasting solution a chance.
Sanral had only managed to collect R687.7 million for the 2018- 2019 financial year, compared with the previous year when it banked R1.87 billion.
